Chapter 46: Morning

He continued fighting and traveling till evening, he found a spacious area near a waterfall, and he decided to spend the night there.

He took out his tent and made a fire, he already had all of that ready in his storage ring. He sat down on a chair and began preparing food for himself.

He learned to cook food in his previous life but he also trained his cooking skills in this life with Spirit beast meat. He took out the high-quality spirit beast meat from his spirit ring and began cooking it.

After a few minutes, a delicious aroma started spreading from his camping site, the spirit meat he cooked releasing such a delicious aroma that it spread to the surrounding area, attracting some small beasts.

Shen Yuan decided to ignore them, as even if they tried to attack him they couldn't go past his defense. He pulled out a piece of meat from the pot and started eating it.

He looked around and saw a few small animals gathered a few meters away from him, he thought for a second and decided to throw a large piece of meat towards them.

He pulled out the largest piece of meat, around a few meters in size, and threw it towards the group of small animals, they all became startled to see something coming towards them.

They scattered here and there to hide away from Shen Yuan, who didn't do anything next and continued to eat his food in peace. After a while, all the small animals gathered together to check out what that human threw towards them.

But before they could do anything, a strong aroma wafted towards them, capturing all their attention. They moved towards the piece of meat and started eating it without thinking if it was a trap or not.

Shen Yuan smiled slightly looking at their reaction and quickly finished his food to return back to his tent to rest.

...

The male cultivator was using his saber to spearhead the attack and the female cultivator was attacking from the side from time to time to damage the panther.

Shen Yuan looked at them for a few seconds and decided to intervene when he found the opportunity to land a lethal strike.

The leopard was just about to jump toward the pair of cultivators when Shen Yuan struck at the stomach of the beast. He was aiming for the beast's neck but the panther avoided it with his sharp instincts.

The panther roared as it jumped back to make some distance between Shen Yuan and the pair of cultivators.

Both of them looked towards Shen Yuan vigilantly as the sight of that sword strike really made them nervous. If it was aimed at them then they would have already died over ten Times.

But they didn't freeze for long as the male cultivator spoke, "Thanks for lending a hand Fellow Daoist, might I be so bold to ask for your name? I am Han Ming from Saber Mountain Sect." Han Ming politely introduced himself while asking for Shen Yuan's origin to see if he was from the demonic path or not.

The female cultivator also chimed in, "I'm from the Lotus Valley Sect, my name is Li Yu." She looked at Shen Yuan and blushed slightly at his handsome figure.

Shen Yuan ignored the weird reaction from the girl and observed the both of them closely, even though they weren't able to sense Shen Yuan's cultivation due to his absurd strength, he was able to look at them as if they were open books.

Both of them were at the 7th level of the Foundation Establishment realm but Han Ming's power level was a notch above Li Yu.

Shen Yuan replied, "My name is Yang Kai, I'm a vagrant cultivator." He didn't deem it worth his efforts to expose his true identity before figuring out their backgrounds.

Both of them felt that he wasn't telling the truth but they could do nothing but take it with a grain of salt.

Shen Yuan ignored both of their suspicious gazes as he looked towards the panther who had also calmed down and was looking at the three of them, "Han Ming, you will attack from the front and Li Yu, you look for opportunities to strike when it isn't paying attention to you while I will look for an opportunity to finish it off with a single strike, I missed the first time but I won't miss again." Shen Yuan spoke confidently.
